Recently, I discovered a fish noodle shop in Soc Son town that really impressed me. After trying many spicy fish noodle shops in other places, today I discovered another fish noodle shop with its own unique and delicious flavor. This shop is not a famous name or known by many people, but after enjoying a bowl of fish noodle here, I realized that sometimes ordinary places can bring dishes that make me remember forever.
It brings a different flavor compared to the fish noodle shops I have tried, and especially compared to the fish noodle shop near my house, which had to close because it was not delicious.
Not everyone cooks delicious fish noodle, and I have tried many places where the bowl of noodles only has bland broth, without any distinctive color and flavor. The fish noodle shop near my house is a typical example. Their broth is almost transparent, without any of the typical color of fish noodle soup, making the bowl of noodles look very unattractive. Moreover, its flavor is very bland, without any strong enough spices to stimulate the taste buds, making me feel miserable when eating it. That is also the reason why that fish noodle shop had to close down, no one wants to come back when the fish noodle soup is not delicious.
Compared to the fish noodle shop I just discovered in this article, the difference is obvious. The first time I entered this shop, the space seemed very simple and ordinary, nothing too outstanding but very pleasant.
This is one of the restaurants that I feel very comfortable because of its closeness and rusticity. The most special thing here is the fish noodle soup (of course, the shop only has fish noodle soup and fish-related noodle dishes)
Talking about the fish noodle soup here, I have to admit that its flavor is really special. The broth of the restaurant is deep yellow - this color comes from annatto oil and tomatoes. Just looking at it, I can feel the richness and deliciousness of the broth, it looks very delicious, right? When I tasted it, I immediately noticed the wonderful harmony between the sweetness of the fish and the sourness and spiciness of the broth. Unlike the fish noodle shops I have eaten, the broth here is not too thin or bland but has depth, both sour and spicy, creating a warm feeling.
The next thing that impressed me was the fish here. The fish is fried very crispy, the outer layer is golden brown and crispy but the inside still retains its natural sweetness and softness. The fish is not too dry or crumbly, but is just right and has no fishy smell, very delicious to eat. In addition to the fish, the fried tofu here is also very special. The square tofu is fried until golden brown, crispy but not hard, when eaten it feels both fatty and crispy, adding to the attractiveness of the bowl of noodles. Another interesting point is that the fish cakes here are very delicious. The fish cakes are thin, fragrant, not too thick and very tasty when eaten.
The vermicelli noodles at this restaurant also make me satisfied. The white vermicelli is soft and smooth, not mushy but absorbs the broth evenly, creating a feeling of fullness and ease of eating. Moreover, the vermicelli bowl of the restaurant is always full with many types of vegetables, mainly chopped mustard greens and dill, which are very fresh and tasty when eaten. One thing I especially love is the appearance of fried shallots in the fish vermicelli bowl. Fried shallots are very fragrant, and when added to the broth, they not only enhance the aroma but also make the broth richer, more beautiful and delicious.
The broth of the restaurant has a very moderate sour and spicy taste, not too harsh but enough to warm the body on cold days. When eating hot fish vermicelli on cold days, I feel great,,. This feeling makes me want to eat more and more, because the taste of the broth and the ingredients really make me want to enjoy it forever.
For only about 30,000 VND (about 1.2 USD), I had a bowl of mixed fish noodle soup with all kinds of fish, crispy fried tofu, fish cakes, fresh vegetables and delicious broth. With such a price, I feel very satisfied because the bowl of noodles is not only delicious but also full and filling. This restaurant is always crowded, although the space is not too luxurious, the flavor is really memorable.
In addition to the traditional fish noodle soup, the restaurant also has some other options such as mixed fish noodle soup, fish stomach, or fish cakes, bringing diversity to diners. I also tried mixed fish noodle soup once and felt very satisfied. I hope you will enjoy this article
